I've never been in a "hardcore raid party" and I'm all for offering people advice (and in a friendly manner). However, without an official parser we cannot even tell anyone why they need to be removed from the party. In fact, some people in these threads have even said that if anyone is even hinting about someone maybe having used a parser (by saying for example "seems like you need to study your rotation a bit more before you can clear this fight"), they will get immediately reported and risk getting banned. Similarly, if that underperforming person would be able to use a parser, they would already know they'd be doing less than they should, and could leave the group by themself to get more practice before joining another group, instead of having to be told (or, in current situation, not told anything at all) and removed by others.
